The opening as it read in 2010
The doctrines of the Latter Day Saint movement commonly referred to as Mormonism teach that its adherents, Latter-day Saints , are either direct descendants of the House of Israel , or are adopted into it.1As such, Judaism is foundational to the history of Mormonism ; Jews are considered a covenant people of God , held in high esteem, and are respected in the Mormon faith system.2The LDS church is consequently very philo-Semitic in its doctrine . From the perspective of the Jewish community, Mormon beliefs regarding their membership in the House of Israel are generally rejected from both a theological and cultural standpoint. The concept of claiming membership in the House of Israel produces various interfaith problems. Though conflicts exist, relationships seldom if ever rise to the level of Anti-Semitism or Anti-Mormonism .3

Judaism is the religion and culture of the Jewish people.
